Atlantic Revolutions: Difference between revisions - Wikipedia

Line 105:

Various connecting threads among these varied uprisings include a concern for the "Rights of Man" and freedom of the individual; an idea (often predicated on [[John Locke]] or [[Jean-Jacques Rousseau]]) of popular sovereignty; belief in a "[[social contract]]", which in turn was often codified in written [[constitution]]s; a certain complex of religious convictions often associated with [[deism]] and characterized by veneration of reason; abhorrence of [[feudalism]] and often of [[monarchy]] itself. The Atlantic Revolutions also had many shared symbols, including the name "[[patriotism|Patriot]]" used by so many revolutionary groups; the slogan of "[[Liberty]]"; the [[Phrygian cap|liberty cap]]; [[Liberty (personification)|Lady Liberty or Marianne]]; the [[Liberty Tree|tree of liberty]] or [[liberty pole]], and so on.
